This was out for the last No Kings protest, but didn't get as much notice as Bruce's song at the time. Love you, Bette 💕 Love you too Bruce 💕

Just in case Americans need to be reminded of what a fascist is and how our government came lose its democracy and be taken over by Trump and Fascism here is a list of fascist actions. See how many you recognize being attempted by the Trump administration 🙄!

She lost me when I saw that she was friends w/ notorious TERF, Martina Navrativola. I'll always question someone's overall character & integrity by those they choose to associate with. I'm deeply saddened becuz I was a huge fan of the Divine Ms. M for a very long time. No flowers for her.

Played her song over my megaphone at the last No Kings Rally. Powerful.

I saw the Divine Miss M at the Greek theater in L.A. in early 80's, and she is still as fabulous as she was 40+ years ago! 💙

Every complicit administrative enabler .. including Musk and the Trump family .. need to face justice, at the blue state level, to prevent commutations in the future.

I think Woody Guthrie would approve. Check out his song about old man Trump (dotard’s daddy)!

Thanks for posting, I hadn't seen it before and now I'll be singing it all day long. Catchy tune.

Nobody does it quite like #BetteMidler. She is brilliant!

Why is the pop guard to the camera?

This is going to be permanently stuck in my head. ❤️

Huh. Never expected to love a song sung by Bette Midler. Or Woodie Guthrie. I can appreciate him. Just not my thing. Although his son's The Motorcycle Song lives rent free in my head for some reason.

No Kings - only Goddesses, The Divine Bette

Hey America The Divine Ms M has called out. Are you going to stand behind her come the mid terms?

Dr A2

Keep the inspiring news coming! I haven’t felt this hopeful in a long time that our voices are finally beginning to be heard in the darkness. It’s because we are so powerful when we stand up for goodness together.

Mars Brito2

Woodie Guthrie remake. They did a terrific job!

Viviane Wolfe, C-IAYT2

Ok, but when I see Bette and Barbara together I just cry and cry. Beaches was a cornerstone movie in my adolescent life.

This is fantastic. I love it.

Woodie Guthrie was a hard-core socialist who absolutely hated liberals. He would be rolling in his grave over this.

I love Bette Midler so much. 10yo inner me is also flipping out at this Beaches reunion. The soundtrack was the first cassette tape I ever bought and I listened to it until nearly wore out. 😅

Needs to be available for downloading/streaming with profits used for the mid-terms.

Perfect timing, today is Liberation Day in Italy, celebrating the end of WWII and end of fascist control of the country with the liberation by the Allied Forces, you know the US and who were once our allies in Europe. It’s a National Holiday here.
